How to Attract an Aries Man As a Taurus Woman

Play a little hard to get.

Men born under this zodiac sign love a challenge. As a Taurus, you prefer to take things slow, which works in your favor with an Aries. Just don’t play too hard to get—an Aries needs to feel like he’s moving toward something attainable. You can do things like: Wait a few hours (or days) before texting him back Say you’re busy when he asks you out—then suggest a different day/time Smile and mingle for a few minutes before approaching him in social settings

Let him make the first move.

Aries guys tend to be alpha males. As a fire sign, your man enjoys feeling like he’s in charge of every situation. That doesn’t mean you have to be docile, especially once your relationship starts to develop. But initially, he’ll like it if you give him room to make the opening move. For example: Wait for him to ask you out Let him plan your first few date activities Give him a chance to initiate the first kiss

Make him laugh.

Aries men prefer partners with a razor-sharp sense of humor. There’s nothing an Aries guy enjoys more than fast-paced, amusing conversation. This sign is particularly drawn to dry humor, light sarcasm, and witty wordplay. As a Taurus, you have a natural and warm sense of humor that he'll be attracted to. Just remember to keep things light and bubbly—dark humor about serious topics like politics probably won’t win him over. Light teasing can also be a turn-on for an Aries, but tread lightly. This sign can have a bit of a temper.

Compliment him.

An Aries lives for a good ego boost any day of the week. Men born under this sign are confident and self-assured. In fact, some astrologists say Aries is downright cocky. Since his favorite topic is himself, this guy never gets tired of compliments. Don't be afraid to lay it on thick! Anything that calls attention to his masculinity is a sure bet. Try something classic like, "You're so strong and brave." If that's not really your style, compliment his skills. You might say, "Your artwork is gorgeous. Have you thought about showing it in a local gallery? I have a curator friend you can talk to."

Stick with positive conversation topics.

Aries men are drawn to upbeat personalities and optimism. Fire signs are bright and energetic folks. Since negativity and pessimism tend to bring your guy down, he'll actively avoid anyone with dark energy. Maintain a sunny disposition and he’ll appreciate the good vibes. If you have a rough day, put a positive spin on it by saying something like, "Today was so busy at work! I'm exhausted, but I'm also so thankful I have a fulfilling career that allows me to help people." Taurus is an earth sign, so you’re naturally warm, friendly, and grounded. An Aries will be drawn to these qualities.

Show off your sporty side.

Aries men are attracted to athleticism. If your guy is a typical Aries, he prioritizes health and fitness above all else. Since physical fitness is so important to him, he's on the lookout for a partner who has an active lifestyle. Be sure to mention that you hit the gym on a regular basis! You can also: Invite him to take a hot yoga class Challenge him to a game of tennis Meet up with him for a weekly run in the park Invite him over to stream an MMA match

Be spontaneous.

An impulsive Aries is always on the go. Men born under this sign tend to follow random whims in search of their next big adventure. Your guy wants a partner who's always down for spur-of-the-moment experiences. Try to go with the flow whenever you’re around an Aries. Since Aries are energetic extroverts, call him up out of the blue and invite him to something fun and social. For example, tell him you have tickets to see his favorite band play tonight, but you have to leave now to make it in time. You could also text him from your friend's birthday bash, tell him the party is lit, and invite him to swing by. As a Taurus, you prefer stability and can get a little stuck in your routine. Being spontaneous might feel a bit weird at first, but just to try to relax and enjoy yourself.

Do something outdoorsy together.

Both Aries and Taurus love soaking up nature. Taurus is more wired to kick back and enjoy a scenic forest stroll, though, so you'll need to meet your adrenaline-junkie Aries in the middle when it comes to choosing an activity. You might suggest: Hiking a challenging trail together A jog through the park followed by a picnic Mountain biking with plenty of breaks for forest bathing

Support his goals and ambitions.

Aries men are very ambitious and hard-working. An Aries guy is always working on a project (or three) and needs a partner who understands how important his goals are to him. If you want to win him over, cheer him on! Encourage him to follow his dreams and praise him for his excellent work ethic. You might say: "I can't believe you built this guitar yourself. It's beautiful! Have you ever thought about building custom guitars for a living? You're really good at it." "You've been working so hard on this work project. I fully expect your boss to give you a substantial raise. I'm so proud of you."

Keep a cool head.

An Aries needs a calming force to balance his fiery energy. Generally, an Aries man has a quick temper and poor impulse control. Your stabilizing Taurus nature will help him keep things in perspective and soothe him when he gets worked up. He'll appreciate the low-key harmony you bring to his life. For example, if he sees another guy chatting you up, he's likely to get jealous and he might even approach the guy aggressively. Assure your Aries that he has nothing to worry about and calmly lead him away. Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of war and aggression. This is where his temper and confrontational nature come from. Taurus is ruled by Venus, so you're the perfect person to bring balance and peace to any situation. Taurus is also a fixed sign, so being the dependable one comes easily to you. Reader Poll: We asked 738 wikiHow readers about the most frustrating part of dating a Taurus, and 77% agreed that it’s when they give you the cold shoulder due to their stubbornness. [Take Poll] So Taurus, even when Aries gets a little heated, try to avoid distancing yourself or giving the silent treatment in response. Your connection will benefit!

Give him plenty of space.

An Aries tends to be turned off by clingy behavior. Aries needs plenty of personal space and wants a strong, independent partner. Reassure him that you don’t need to hang out with him every single day. As a Taurus, you have plenty of hobbies and projects of your own that you want to work on! He’ll love that about you.
